Re: Challenge 766: Plantin's workshop
Max and children's flight delayed by a few hours, so just time for another very quickie. But this IS the last ..... and my nose is still it's normal length. Wikipedia: "In 1561, the Spanish governor ordered a raid on Plantin's workshop for possibly housing heretical works and being a Protestant sympathiser." He has his spies at work first ...........  _________________ The subtlety and conviction of any Photoshop effect is invariably inversely proportional to the number of knobs on it ....... |

But the radiator itself under the window is there in all our images.  _________________ The subtlety and conviction of any Photoshop effect is invariably inversely proportional to the number of knobs on it ....... |

You can't have a printshop without an apprentice... 
... he's holding a 17th. century screwdriver not a knife. |

Re: Challenge 766: Plantin's workshop
By the time I realised that was a heater, I had too far in the challenge to remove it but thanks for pointing it out David. And also, thank you for the great image! Gordon, well done with rebuilding the entire machine! http://vimeo.com/350660772  _________________ Dorothy: Toto, I've a feeling we're not in Kansas anymore |

Actually more likely a knife as according the document in the man's hand he would appear to be an apprentice cook - (Cuisinier).  _________________ The subtlety and conviction of any Photoshop effect is invariably inversely proportional to the number of knobs on it ....... |

You have excelled yourself Anna. A wonderfully off the wall idea. And so much animation, with all the hallmark tiny details that mark your work. Just splendid! _________________ The subtlety and conviction of any Photoshop effect is invariably inversely proportional to the number of knobs on it ....... |

Re: Challenge 766: Plantin's workshop
Thanks Anna and David. I kept looking at the printer in the original image and eventually decided that animating it would just be too complex. Rebuilding and animating was a far simpler solution and the 3D work was actually quite straightforward. _________________  |

Re: Challenge 766: Plantin's workshop
No David, it is a screwdriver. Plantin supplemented his income by printing menus and handbills for bistros and brasseries... a simple task performed by the apprentices while in training. An historical fact, well documented by Wiki-foolery.  |

The wedding invitations should have gone out last week so the bride and groom have brought their best man to help them sort out the delay at the printers  |

Thanks Steve - I fiddled around as much as I could with the shadows but it is not ideal - pictures of them were surprisingly thin on the ground _________________ I'm not really bad - I just draw that way |
